Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a front structure of a saddle-ride type vehicle which includes headlights and an air introduction passage in a front portion of a vehicle body. More particularly, the invention relates to a structure where the air introduction passage is configured to introduce travelling winds toward the rear of the vehicle and is opened toward the front of the vehicle.
  • Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2009-262914 discloses a motorcycle in which openings for lights are provided on a front cowl in a front portion of a vehicle body. A headlight and a position lamp are separately arranged in inner and outer positions within each opening for lights in a lateral direction of the vehicle. Multiple openings are provided on a cover for covering the opening for lights between the headlight and the position lamp, and a duct is provided for introducing travelling winds, which have been taken into the duct through each opening, toward the rear.
  • the headlight secures the amount of light by means of its large size in the radial direction and in the longitudinal (front-rear) direction. For this reason, the structure as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2009-262914 , in which the headlight and the duct are arranged in parallel, makes it difficult to use the travelling winds that flow through the air introduction passage within the duct for cooling the headlight.
  • An object of at least the preferred embodiments of the present invention is to provide a front structure of a saddle-ride type vehicle which enables headlights to be cooled by use of travelling winds passing through an air introduction passage.
  • the use of the LEDs as the sources of light makes it possible to reduce the size of the headlights, and the placement of such small headlights inside the air introduction passage in the duct makes it possible to cool the headlights with the travelling winds which pass through the air introduction passage.
  • the supporting of the headlights by the duct means that specialized parts are no longer necessary to support the headlights, except for the duct.
  • the headlights are located inside the air introduction passage in such a way that: passage portions are formed at at least one of the left and right sides and the upper and lower sides of the paired headlights within the duct, the passage portions being open to the front and constituting part of the air introduction passage, such that travelling winds flowing through the passage portions flow together behind the headlights.
  • the travelling winds flowing through the passage portions each of which is formed among the duct, either of the left and right sides of each headlight, and at least one of the upper and lower sides of the headlight, flow together behind the headlights.
  • a wider area of the outer surface of each headlight can be exposed to the travelling winds, and the headlight can be cooled more satisfactorily.
  • the duct is supported by a front cowl which constitutes part of the vehicle body.
  • the headlights are not directly supported by the front cowl, while the duct is supported by the front cowl, and for this reason, the shape of the front cowl can be simplified.
  • lenses in front portions of the headlights are formed such that the centres of the lenses project further forward than the sides of the lenses.
  • the travelling winds cool the lens by hitting the lens, and then easily flow from the centre to the side of the lens due to the draw by the wind which flows along the inner surface of the duct at a high velocity.
  • the plurality of headlights are arranged laterally side by side within the air introduction passage, with a front end of the headlight which is closer to the lateral outside of the vehicle body located further rearward than a front end of the headlight which is closer to the lateral centre of the vehicle body.
  • the velocity of the travelling winds can be maintained while improving the performance of cooling the headlights by guiding the travelling winds, which flow along the lens of the headlight closer to the centre of the vehicle body, to the headlight closer to the outside of the vehicle body.
  • the headlights are located further rearward than points which are the points at which, in a plan view, straight lines extending longitudinally through the lateral centres of the two headlights intersect the front end of the duct.
  • the headlights are supported by the duct with the assistance of a mesh member.
  • the headlights can be supported satisfactorily while allowing the travelling winds to flow through the vicinity of the headlights.
  • the headlights are supported with the assistance of stays which are provided at a plurality of locations spaced out at intervals in a circumferential direction of the duct.
  • the stays are provided in multiple locations which are spaced out at intervals in the circumferential direction of the duct, and the headlights are supported by these stays.
  • the headlights can be supported satisfactorily while allowing the travelling winds to flow in a wider area around each headlight.
  • a single opening at least part of which is located in a lateral centre portion of the vehicle body, is provided at a front cowl constituting part of the vehicle body, and a front end of the single duct is arranged to face the opening.
  • frontward, rearward, upward, downward, leftward and rightward and similar terms in the following description refer to the directions as viewed from a rider riding the motorcycle.
  • a front fork 15 and a steering handlebar 16 are steerably supported by a front end of a vehicle body frame of a motorcycle which is a saddle-ride type vehicle.
  • the front fork 15 includes paired left and right leg portions 15a, 15b which extend on the left and right sides of a front wheel WF, and whose lowermost end portions rotatably support the front wheel WF, respectively.
  • the steering handlebar 16 is connected to the uppermost portion of the front fork 15.
  • a front fender 17 for covering the front wheel WF from above is supported by the two leg portions 15a, 15b of the front fork 15.
  • a front cowl 18A for covering the front portion of the vehicle body frame constitutes part of a vehicle body cover 19A.
  • the vehicle body cover 19A together with the vehicle body frame constitute a vehicle body BA.
  • a windshield screen 20 is provided in the upper central portion of the front cowl 18A.
  • Rear view mirrors 21, 21 are provided at the upper left and right portions of the front cowl 18A.
  • Two sets of paired headlights 22, 23 are provided, respectively, at the left and right sections of the front portion of the vehicle body BA.
  • paired left and right air introduction passages 24 for introducing travelling winds rearward to an engine mounted on the vehicle body frame are provided at the front portion of the vehicle body BA, in such a way that the air introduction passages 24 are open toward the front.
  • openings 25 are provided in the left and right sections of the front cowl 18A. Each opening 25 is formed such that it becomes higher in position toward the outer lateral side of the vehicle.
  • the air introduction passages 24 are formed from ducts 26 whose front ends face the openings 25, and which extend rearward from the openings 25.
  • each duct 26 includes a front duct half body 27 and a rear duct half body 28, a front end portion of which is joined to a rear end portion of the front duct half body 27.
  • the joining of the front duct half body 27 and the rear duct half body 28 is achieved, for example, by fastening together a flange portion 27a provided at the rear end portion of the front duct half body 27 and a flange portion 28a provided at the front end portion of the rear duct half body 28 with multiple screw members 29.
  • the front cowl 18A is integrally provided with a support cylindrical portion 30 which extends rearward while forming the corresponding opening 25.
  • the front duct half body 27 is fitted into the support cylindrical portion 30, and is fastened to the support cylindrical portion 30 by use of screw members 31.
  • the duct 26 is supported by the front cowl 18A which constitutes part of the vehicle body BA.
  • the paired headlights 22, 23 are located inside the air introduction passages 24 formed within the ducts 26, and are arranged side by side (as shown in Fig. 1 ).
  • the headlights 22, 23 use LEDs 42, 43 as sources of light.
  • the paired headlights 22, 23 respectively include: cylindrical support cases 34, 35; base plates 36, 37; reflecting mirrors 40, 41; LEDs 42, 43; and lenses 44, 45.
  • the axes of the respective cylindrical support cases 34, 35 are directed in the longitudinal direction.
  • the base plates 36, 37 respectively include multiple heat radiation fins 38, 39 which protrude rearward, and are attached to the rear end portions of the support cases 34, 35 in such a way as to close the rear-end openings of the support cases 34, 35.
  • the reflecting mirrors 40, 41 are each shaped like a bowl which is opened towards the front, and are fixedly located in the insides of the support cases 34, 35.
  • the LEDs 42, 43 are located on front faces of the base plates 36, 37, and are positioned in the centre portions of the reflecting mirrors 40, 41.
  • the lenses 44, 45 are attached to front end portions of the support cases 34, 35 in such a way as to close the front-end openings of the support cases 34,35.
  • the lenses 44, 45 located at the front portions of the headlights 22, 23 are projector lenses, which are formed in the shape of a forwardly convex curve such the centres of the lenses 44, 45 project further forward than the sides of the lenses 44,45.
  • Each of the headlights 22, 23 is located inside the corresponding air introduction passage 24, and is supported by the corresponding duct 26. In this embodiment, each of the headlights 22, 23 are supported by the duct 26 with the assistance of a mesh member 46.
  • a peripheral portion of the mesh member 46 is held by and between the front duct half body 27 and the rear duct half body 28 which collectively constitute the duct 26.
  • the peripheral portion of the mesh member 46 is held between the flange portion 27a of the front duct half body 27 and the flange portion 28a of the rear duct half portion 28.
  • the support cases 34, 35 of the headlights 22, 23 are fixed to the mesh member 46 and pass through the mesh member 46.
  • the passage portion 24a is formed among the duct 26, the left side of the headlight 22, and the upper and lower sides of the headlight 22, while the passage portion 24b is formed among the duct 26, the right side of the headlight 23, and the upper and lower sides of the headlight 23.
  • the paired headlights 22, 23 are arranged side by side inside the air introduction passage 24, while, as shown in Figs. 2 and 4 , the front end of the headlight 23 closer to the lateral outside of the vehicle is situated further rearward than the front end of the headlight 22 closer to the lateral centre of the vehicle.
  • the two headlights 22, 23 are located further rearward than points P1, P2, which are the points at which, in a plan view, straight lines L1, L2 extending longitudinally through the lateral centres of the two headlights 22, 23 intersect the front end of the duct 26.
  • Fig. 4 the flows of travelling winds around the front portion of the vehicle body BA are represented by arrows which become longer as the velocities of the travelling winds increase.
  • a travelling wind flowing in the air introduction passage 24 laterally outward of the headlight 23 is relatively fast due to draw by a travelling wind which flows along the side of the vehicle body BA (the side of the front cowl 18A) at a greater flow velocity.
  • a travelling wind flowing in the air introduction passage 24 laterally inward of the headlight 22 is relatively slow due to the air flow stagnation which takes place as a result of the travelling wind hitting the lateral centre portion of the vehicle body BA (the centre portion of the front cowl 18A).
  • the headlights 22, 23 using the LEDs 42, 43 as the sources of light are located inside the air introduction passage 24 while supported by the duct 26 which forms the air introduction passage 24.
  • the use of the LEDs 42, 43 as the sources of light makes it possible to reduce the size of the headlights 22, 23.
  • the placement of the small headlights 22, 23 inside the air introduction passage 24 within the duct 26 enables the headlights 22, 23 to be cooled with the travelling wind which flows in the air introduction passage 24.
  • the support of the headlights 22, 23 by the duct 26 makes specialized parts (except for the duct 26) no longer necessary for supporting the headlights 22, 23.
  • the wider areas of the outer surfaces of the headlights 22, 23 can be exposed to the travelling winds, and the headlights 22, 23 can therefore be cooled satisfactorily, because the headlights 22, 23 are located inside the air introduction passage 24 in such a way that passage portions 24a, 24b are formed at least paired two opposite sides (in the case of the first embodiment, both pairs) out of the paired left and right sides and the paired upper and lower sides of the headlights 22, 23; that is, at at least one of the left and right sides and the upper and lower sides of the pair of headlights 22, 23 (in the case of the first embodiment, both pairs of sides).
  • the passage portions 24a, 24b are opened to the front and form part of the air introduction passage 24, and the travelling winds flowing through the respective passage portions 24a, 24b flow together behind the headlights 22, 23.
  • the shape of the front cowl 18A can be simplified with the headlights 22, 23 not being supported by the front cowl 18A.
  • the lenses 44, 45 located at the front portions of the headlights 22, 23 are formed such that the centres of the lenses 44, 45 project further forward than the sides of the lenses 44, 45, the travelling winds cool the lenses 44, 45 by hitting the lenses 44, 45, and easily flow sideways from the centre portions of the lenses 44, 45 due to the draw by a travelling wind which flows along the inner surface of the duct 26 at a higher velocity.
  • the paired headlights 22, 23 arranged laterally side by side are located inside the air introduction passage 24, with the front end of the headlight 23 closer to the lateral outside of the vehicle body situated further rearward than the front end of the headlight 22 closer to the lateral centre of the vehicle body, the flow velocity of the travelling wind can be maintained while improving the performance of cooling the headlights 22, 23, by guiding a travelling wind which flows along the lens 44 of the headlight 22 closer to the lateral centre of the vehicle body to the headlight 23 closer to the lateral outside of the vehicle body.
  • the headlights 22, 23 are located further rearward than points P1, P2, which are the points at which, in a plan view, straight lines L1, L2 extending longitudinally through the lateral centres of the two headlights 22, 23 intersect the front end of the duct 26.
